Finding The Best Oahu Activities Discounts

Are you a "coupon-cutter"? Well, if you're looking to find some Oahu activities discounts on your Hawaii vacation, you'll do well in Waikiki!

There are lots of discounts and coupons on Oahu attractions to be found, Waikiki coupons are good for discounts on Polynesian shows, sunset cruises, Hawaiian luaus, dolphin shows, zoo and aquarium, and submarine rides, just to name a few.

Usually what we do is just take an hour or two at the start of our Waikiki holiday and stroll down some of the main Waikiki avenues (Kuhio Ave, Kalakaua Ave and Lewers St. are 3 of our favorites). In vending boxes and dispensers, you'll find all kinds of Oahu attractions booklets and guides.

Another good place to find Oahu attraction discount coupons and offers is in the Honolulu newpapers, like the Star Bulletin (especially on weekends).

Here's a look at some of the popular publications that are full of discounts and coupons on Oahu attractions, shows, tours and restaurants:

This Week Oahu - free guide to Oahu activities. Maps, news, and coupons for discounts on shopping, dining, attractions and more. They are everywhere! Hotel lobbies, street display stands, tourist attractions, ABC stores, and more. This is my personal favorite, and the maps and other tour info make this booklet a must-have.

The Best of Oahu - another free guide, this one is smaller (palm sized). Available in most of the same places This Week Oahu is found. 15+ pages of coupons at the back for discounts on Hawaiian souvenirs, restaurants and Oahu attractions.

101 Things To Do on Oahu - a bit harder to find, check the larger brochure and pamphlet stands thoroughly. Magazine-sized guide to an extensive list of things to do on Oahu, with 2-for-1 and 50% off coupons on sights and shows.
